Coretta Delores Israel, 56, was killed in a barrage of gunfire in Milwaukee in the early morning hours of March 13, 2025. Officers were called about 2:30 a.m. to North 107th Street and West Stark Street, where Israel and her adult son were found inside a white Buick that had been riddled with bullets. Israel suffered fatal gunshot injuries; her son, described by investigators as nonverbal, was grazed in the chest and survived.

Investigators recovered 21 cartridge casings at the scene, including 14 believed fired from a rifle and seven from a handgun. The driver’s side of the Buick had at least 19 bullet strikes. Police said the vehicle appeared to have been occupied as the shooting occurred and that Israel and her son had been living in the car.

Surveillance footage showed a white Ford arriving in the neighborhood and leaving afterward. A vehicle matching that description fled from police hours later, crashed, and three people ran; two were captured. Prosecutors charged Amarion Washington, then 20, with first-degree reckless homicide and first-degree recklessly endangering safety, and Henry Tyler, then 35, with aiding a felon, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, fleeing or eluding, and second-degree recklessly endangering safety.

If anyone knew Coretta Israel or saw activity in that neighborhood on March 13, can you help investigators by sharing what you remember?
